What to expect
They are calling it the 'million-dollar bullet': a sniper shot from a near-impossible distance.
But there is no crime scene investigation, no evidence, and no co-operation from the local Bahamian police.
Ambitious New York district attorney Nance Laurel won't let it go. This murder has all the hallmarks of a contract killing, and she has evidence that the order came from the highest levels of the US government.
Putting her career on the line, she calls in independent investigators: Lincoln Rhyme and Amelia Sachs. No strangers to controversy, their reputation for seeing what others miss is unparalleled, and she knows they will risk everything - even their lives - to seek the truth . . .

Critics Review
-
Praise for THE BURNING WIRE
:
-
'Deaver can be relied on to deliver high tension - in this case it comes in every sense of the expression.'
The Times
-
Jeffery Deaver is something of a summer tradition for thriller fans, and a Lincoln Rhyme novel makes for a bumper year . . . Deaver's pacy prose is addictive enough to result in dreadful sunburn if read on the beach, so approach with caution.
Independent on Sunday
-
'Ingenious plotting is combined with ample helpings of information, about both New York's infrastructure and the hero's disability'
The Sunday Times

'Brilliant . . . it's easy to get swept up in the sheer velocity of the action'
Scotsman
-
'The art of writing blockbuster thrillers is not easily mastered but Deaver has it at his fingertips. One of his specialities is the out-of-left-field revelation and THE BURNING WIRE is brimming with them.'
Daily Express
-
'Deaver is a master of misdirection and the plot will keep you guessing to the end.'
